Festive Holiday Table Rentals

The dining table is the heart of any holiday gathering. It’s where meals are shared, stories are told, and memories are made. Southern Event Rentals offers a collection of styled tables that will make hosting holidays less stressful. Our Styled by Southern collections are curated to impress, making them the perfect starting point for a stress-free holiday dinner.

Autumnal Bliss – Thanksgiving calls for a table that exudes warmth and nods to the beauty of the Earth! Harvest Haven features rich shades of green and orange, with our Marigold Cabo China and Sahara Safe runner. Or, consider the green-focused Feast & Ferns, with printed Liana China and Wood Scalloped Chargers.

Merry & Bright – Bring a bold and festive vibe to your Christmas gathering with seasonal colors. Holly Jolly is a classic choice with brilliantly colored red and green linens! While Southern Sparkle offers a modern look with a range of icy-blue hues and pops of black. Lastly, Deck the Halls is perfect should you appreciate the glimmer of gold!

New Year’s Joy – Bold is the style of choice for New Year’s Eve. Make a statement with Midnight Magic and it’s Onyx China and elegant Nova Linens. Or, wow your guests with soft shades of cream and beige featured in New Year Neutral.

Extra Dining Tables & Seating

No one likes cramped quarters during holiday gatherings. Ensure your guests have plenty of space and comfort by exploring our dining tables and seating options. The Aged Oak Dining Table, for instance, will create a warm and cozy ambiance. Its rustic charm is beautifully matched by the Cross-Back and Harlin Dining Chairs. If you prefer a more classic look, the White Antique Dining Table is a fantastic choice. Pair it with our Bentwood or Adeline Dining Chairs to create a merry and inviting atmosphere. For outdoor celebrations, velvet furniture will ensure your guests feel right at home. Such as the Fern Velvet Sofa and Saylor Navy Velvet Arm Chairs.

Holiday Catering Rentals

One of the most time-consuming aspects of hosting a holiday event is preparing and serving food and drinks. Southern Event Rentals offers a range of catering rentals that will leave you more time to enjoy the festivities. Our chafing dishes are the best way to dish up large quantities of food, along with classic Silver Serving Platters. Similarly, elevate your tables with fan favorites, like rolls or garnishes, with Family Styles Serving Pieces. Meanwhile, interactive beverage displays can create memorable moments. Welcome guests with freshly poured bubbly on lush Boxwood Walls with Champagne Shelves. Or, follow dinner up with a hot beverage station, using our White Market Cart and Hammered Coffee Urns. Finally, elevate your drink service with themed cocktails in elegant glassware, like Spiked Hot Chocolate or a rich Espresso Martini.

One way to achieve this is by incorporating rentals that transform your space into a winter wonderland. Keep reading to explore some holiday event rentals from Southern Events that will make for a festive get-together and impress your guests.

Festive Event Linens

When it comes to setting the stage for the holidays, the choice of table linens can make all the difference. To create an atmosphere of elegance and charm, consider using bright linens that set a sophisticated tone. Our Silver White Leaf linens exude timeless beauty, making them a perfect choice for those who appreciate classic elegance. Another option are the Heritage Light Blue linens. A soft seasonal color that will bring a touch of calm and festivity to your table. Moreover, our velvet linens offer the ultimate luxury and are available in an array of festive shades. Like Magnolia Green and Scarlet Red! As well as icy neutral shades like London Fog.

Elegant Holiday Place Settings

Crafting an inviting and modern ambiance for your holiday gathering involves more than just decor. It’s also about the finer details, like your place settings. Consider incorporating metallic-accented serving ware to add a touch of glamour to your table. Our Glass Charger with Silver Rim and Carrera Marble Dinner Plates offer a timeless look. Additionally, try the Gold Round Laquer Charger with Athena China and Austin Flatware. Or, for a modern flair, pair the Copper Glass Charger with Earthen Alabaster China and Brushed Copper Flatware. On the other hand, take a look at our all-black holiday event rentals. A moody yet modern look is a unique color scheme for a corporate or formal affair! From chargers that gleam to flatware that shimmers under the warm holiday lights, these elements can elevate the aesthetics of your tables and leave a lasting impression on your guests.

Eye Catching Barware

A well-stocked and beautifully presented bar is the centerpiece of any memorable holiday gathering. To ensure your cocktail hour stands out, it’s essential to pay attention to your barware. We recommend that you opt for unique glassware. Specifically to serve up your signature seasonal cocktails. Our contemporary Cyblil Glassware and elegant Gatsby Coupe Glasses are excellent choices. Whereas the Meridian Blue Tumblers or Celia Gold Rim Glassware will make a statement. However, you can make an even bigger impression when you put your bar menu on display. Feature our Boxwood Walls affixed with Champagne Shelves. Or, add a touch of glamour to your holiday gathering with the Gold Bookcase or White Barback Shelf.

Cozy Holiday Party Lounges

Creating cozy lounge areas within your event space can make your guests feel at home and encourage relaxation and conversation. That is to say, these spaces are perfect for intimate gatherings! Achieve a welcoming ambiance when you pair our Fern Velvet Sofa with Gold Bamboo Arm Chairs. Comparatively, feature the Saylor Navy Velvet Sofa and Arm Chairs. A beautiful choice to complement a winter theme. In addition, elevate your lounge areas with tables, where guests can set light bites and drinks. Such as with the Echo Silver Metal Accent Tables, which will lend to a bold icy aesthetic! For larger gatherings, the versatile Pearce Modular Lounge allows you to customize the lounge area to fit your space and guest list.

Whether it’s a large corporate gala, casual holiday office party, or intimate countdown cocktail hour, we’ve got the perfect New Year’s Eve party rentals to host a memorable fete. Think plush modern retro furniture, luxe neutral linens, and a bar featuring the most divine glassware; for tasty themed drinks. Keep reading for ideas on everything from trendy tablescapes to lounge areas fit for a long night of sipping and sitting!

Moody Metallic Tables

So you’re hosting a seated dinner? Creating a moody modern New Year’s table is a breeze! Black is the color of choice for this celebration, but we like to add luxe touches where we can! The easiest way is serving ware featuring metallic accents – plates, glassware, flatware. Start with a set of our elegant tablecloths, in a solid black or with a subtle pattern, like Black Nova. If you prefer a brighter but equally elegant linen, Gold Furrow is a stunner. Top it off with a stack of china. Such as a Gold, Silver, or Black Rim Glass Charger and any of our Earthen Dinner Plates. Choose serving ware that complements existing metallics, whether it be our Gold Austin Flatware, Brooklyn Flatware, or Brushed Copper Flatware. For a spunky touch, include some fun modern glassware – Cybil or blue-hued Meridian Tumblers.

Cozy Countdown Lounge

A lounge (or two) are a must-have for New Year’s Eve. It will be a long night and to keep guests cozy you need a space where they can sit, sip, and mingle to their heart’s content! Our favorite modern moody setup starts with Regent Black Velvet Sofa and a set of Acrylic Ghost Arm Chairs. Pair it with our Capriano Marble and Copper Accent Tables, or a similar set. Another alternative is our Modular Pearce Lounge, which can be arranged as desired to fit your event space. Be sure to surround it with some layered rugs for an extra cozy vibe! For larger parties, we recommend adding in a sprinkling of bistro tables and barstools near the bar area.

Perfect Bar for Toasts

Speaking of bars, you will want one – whether you are serving cocktails or mocktails! Our Black Franklin Bar is a classic staple which you can accessorize with our Avenue Bar Back Shelving. Here you can stock bottles or display fanciful glassware. For smaller gatherings, grab our Gold Bar Cart for storage or a beverage service. When it comes to choosing glassware, you’ll want to offer an array of choices. Start with Gatsby Champagne Coupes for toasting. And Upton Glassware for bourbon or mocktails! If you’d like to wow guests with a champagne tower, our White 6-Tier Serving Tower is a must-have!

Soft & Moody Event Lighting

Candlelight sets the perfect mood for midnight festivities. Create intimate centerpieces using our Davis Glass Cylinders filled with candles and surrounded by a soft runner or greenery. Or feature votives in our Acrylic Rectangle Container. To warm up lounge areas, strategically scatter Oversized Lanterns. We have a variety of styles to choose from to complement different themes! Another fun option is to cozy up around our Hammered Rectangle Fire Pit! Just be sure to supply some plush pillows and afghans or blankets.

Feeling inspired? We would love to help you plan a Moody Modern New Year’s Eve party in Nashville – whether you’re hosting a small at-home gathering or a large corporate event! Send us a message at  info@southerneventsonline.com, or take a look at our catalog of rentals on the website.

Nothing brings good tidings and cheer like delicious holiday fare – deviled eggs, butter-laden potatoes, gravy-smothered turkey. In fact, food remains the focal point of most holiday celebrations, wherein family and friends gather around the table. This makes it all the more important that you serve your painstakingly created dishes in style – that and it somehow makes the food taste better. Take a look at our stylish serving pieces for holiday parties, and other catering rentals, that will make for a memorable food-focused gathering.

Luxe Hors D’oeuvres & Entrees

Which is better – hor d’oeuvres or entrees? We can’t decide, but there is no doubt that appetizers have picked up in popularity in recent years. Maybe it’s the charcuterie fad, but people seem to love these flavor-packed and visually stunning creations. And what better way to display them than a gorgeous Silver Tray – try Carson Rectangle for charcuterie or Carson Round for tidbits on toothpicks. If you prefer a rustic-inspired alternative, our Wood Charcuterie Board or Wood Melamine Tray are both gorgeous.

Come time for dinner, create a complete look using our crisp white Melamine Serving Pieces. From deep platters to bowls and trays, there is a piece for every tasty morsel. Add on other essentials, like a Rattan Bread Basket – for those fan-favorite rolls. Plus a Stainless Steel Gravy Boat (or two)! If you plan to have a larger guest count and want to keep dinner service easy peasy, no problem. We rent chafing dishes, plus stock a variety of other catering rentals.

Fanciful Dessert Plates

What are the holidays without your favorite desserts? Alongside charcuterie, dessert displays are also popular – elegant tiered arrangements featuring everything from homemade pies to handheld puddings. Our Marble and Gold Cake Stands are adjustable, ideal for creating a custom arrangement. And our Windsor Stands would be a fun add-on. For a rustic-inspired table, feature the Wyatt Pedestals alongside the Willow 2-Tiered Stand – perfect for minis! Of course, you’ll also need plates. We recommend any of our gold accent china, for that luxe seasonal look. Check out Hamlet for a traditional table, or Athena for a more modern setting.

Beautiful Beverage Displays

Easily the most underrated serving pieces for rent are our beverage dispensers, for a coffee or tea service. Regardless of the size of your holiday party, these elegant pieces will make for an elevated experience. We have options for table service or drink stations, including the Silver Coffee Server and Silver Coffee Urn. Just don’t forget the matching cream and sugar set – a must for that charming old-school look. For larger parties, or if you plan to feature a build-you-own hot chocolate bar, opt for a larger Copper Coffee Urn. You might also throw in a second Silver Urn, to provide a spiked coffee or hot chocolate option for the adults!

The key to throwing a successful holiday party (and not throwing your sanity out of the window) is proper preparation. If you’ve ever hosted a holiday party before, you understand how chaotic planning can be. Even then, you may still feel like you’re scrambling trying to get things done at the last minute. This is why we want to treat you to a stress-free holiday party planning experience. Whether you’re hosting an intimate holiday dinner at home or a large formal gala! Check out our tips below on holiday party must-haves, featuring our stylish rentals. Plus, grab our Holiday Party Checklist that will make it easy to execute a jolly affair!

On-Trend Holiday Office Party

Hosting a holiday party at the office can be limiting, but that doesn’t mean it should be boring. Start by adding some color to the office with festive linens in a brilliant Heritage Cranberry or deep Magnolia Green. If you’re serving food, even just appetizers, pass on the paper plates and opt for Gold Accent China paired with matching Gold Austin Flatware. Finally, serve up a DIY Hot Cocoa or Coffee Bar (don’t forget the Baileys!), with our hot beverage dispensers. Alternatively, treat your team to a casual cocktail hour featuring a formal bar and a menu of seasonal cocktails in fancy glassware!

Casual Holiday Luncheon

When hosting a holiday luncheon, chances are you’ll be inviting co-workers, peers, and people you may want to network with. That’s why you’ll want the event to feel approachable, yet still have a formal holiday vibe. In order to achieve this, you’ll want to have coordinating linens such as our Champagne Sequin Linen, Chafing Dishes, and Copper Beverage Service Equipment – to give your holiday party a festive feel. To make sure guests feel welcome and encouraged to mingle, we also recommend a stylish lounge. Our Fern Velvet Sofa and Bamboo Arm Chairs are a chic set!

Feast at a Festive Gala

The holidays are a great time to celebrate in a big way and a grand gala is just the way to thank VIP clients or your team for all they contribute to your company’s success. If you’re hosting a large formal company holiday party, there are a few items you’ll want to make sure you include. A red carpet entrance area sets the scene, as do our Boxwood Walls – emblazoned with your company logo or festival holiday decor. Cocktail and bistro tables are a must for mingling and should be decked out with luxe linens, say Etched Velvet or a shimmery Satin. Then there is the bar, where guests can enjoy their favorite seasonal drinks, from a Hot Toddy to spiked cocoa. We also recommend having formal place settings with china, chargers, and plenty of glassware for toasting the year past and ahead.

At-Home Holiday Soriee

Cozy home holiday parties are a wonderful and intimate way to share seasonal good tidings with family and friends. But these gatherings can stretch the limits of anyone’s kitchen! Whether you need extra plates or forks, serving dishes and platters, or flutes for toasting, we have it all. We even offer a selection of curated rentals, Styled by Southern, packed with all the essentials for creating a stylish holiday tablescape – like the ice-inspired Silver Soiree! We can also elevate your seating, with our Adeline or Harlin Dining Chairs. For an extra luxe look, create an elegant drink display using our rolling Gold Bar Cart. As always, we’re glad to schedule a delivery or pick-up at our Franklin warehouse.

Bonus Tip! Neutral Accents

Too much of a good thing applies when styling an event with metallics: ground your design with neutral elements, like our Grayson Farm Tables or Ghost Chairs. Better yet, combine them together for an optical illusion: the lucite and gray can combine to look silver with the right lighting & design. Add a Chiffon Runner and set with your favorite metallic tableware for a winter wonderland-inspired tablescape.

With sleek lines for an unassuming silhouette, the Pure Glassware and Reese Glassware make for the perfect complement to metallic tablescape pieces you choose.
